Edited by Georg Friederich Reimmann. Title printed in red & black. 11 p.l., 400, [37] pp. 8vo, cont. vellum over boards (light browning & foxing). Ulm: D. Bartholomai, 1722. First edition. Hoffmann (1660-1742), whom Hirsch calls “one of the heroes of German medicine in the 18th century,” was “a leading medical systematist of the first half of the eighteenth century...he became a highly influential teacher and practicing physician in Germany, systematizing coherently the Galenic, iatromechanical, and iatrochemical aspects of the phenomena of health and disease.”–D.S.B., VI, p. 458. In the present work, Hoffmann offers a collection of medical and dietetic instructions developed to improve health. He provides a long description of Hungarian wines and their medical uses. He also recommends bathing in mineral waters. Very good copy of an uncommon book. ❧ Arents 526–“The learned doctor considers the correct use of snuff important enough to entitle the subject to a separate chapter.” Hirsch, III, pp. 256-59.
